TheOrange 0 Posted July 25, 2012 Author Share Posted July 25, 2012 OK that's me done. Gambarimashita! Off on a plane the day after tomorrow for a nice cool down and enjoying some relaxing time out of Japan. Did pretty well I think, certainly feel much slimmer. Back to it in September but it's 100% fun I'm looking forward to now. See you on the other side and good luck to those continuing! Link to post Share on other sites

big-will 7 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 I haven't posted in this topic. Kind of wish I had put a bit more effort in now. I suppose I'll have to promise myself to get more into shape before snow arrives. Link to post Share on other sites

muikabochi 208 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Still going here. Been out on bike (or substitute long walk) every day since early May now. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Eased off a bit the last few weeks. Going to be away from my bike most of this next week (ladies family). For those coming back from overseas trips in the next few weeks, how have things gone? Link to post Share on other sites
brit-gob 9 Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 I think I am going to need to get on my bike once I get back. Another 10 days or so to go though. Link to post Share on other sites

muikabochi 208 Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 After a few weeks of not going out or not doing much, got myself back up to 20km last night. Will try to keep that up, perhaps 4-5 times a week. Link to post Share on other sites

hellyer 216 Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 We had the first ever Sunshine Coast Marathon here today on the ..well,... Sunshine Coast Qld. I feel fitter just from watching Link to post Share on other sites
Thundercat 60 Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Exercise, BM? Yep. I gone back to my routine quick when I got home. Also, I had the chance to go surfing 4 days in a row Link to post Share on other sites

ippy 66 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 took acycle up sugadaira yesterday. Way out of my depth. First 3 or 4 kms was alright. Straight gentle uphill, and then it hit the mountain. Well, actually if you come up from suzaka way, theres a west path or something locked off about half way up, thats where i pretty much stopped cycling and had to push the rest of the way up. Almost turned back about 500 meters from the end where i was down to my last bit of water and no end in sight, but finally bust through the trees just over 10kms after the start of the uphill. I have no idea how anyone could cycle that professionally. Those people are goddamned cyborgs. In case you ever fancy it, theres 27 of those marked turns (they start about 4 or 5kms into it and twist their way up the mountain). It'll give you an idea of how far you have left to go Anyways, it was nice seeing the place, so i reckon my next few weekends i might try and hit up some o fthe nearer skijos just to seewat they look like in summer. Could be a fun project. Lots of rugby at sugadaira by the way. Link to post Share on other sites
joshnii 2 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I like seeing skijo in summer. Link to post Share on other sites
